    This feels like political theater.
    Instead Big Oil should be prosecuted for profiting off the destruction of our environment. For years they knew what they were doing.

    Oh boy. Members of the Senate wrote a letter. They must finally care for the interests of the common man. That’s a relief. I was afraid things were going to get worse before they got better.
